1
Tip of the Week
When handling materials on the dock, there is rightfully a great deal of emphasis on worker safety; eye protection, fire prevention, first aid, and much more. But what about safeguarding your cargo, materials, and tools? If you load a truck in the dock area, do you have the equipment needed to safeguard the load until the truck hits the road? What about during rest stops and other times the truck may be unattended? No dock should be without a supply of truck seals. Truck seals can be applied to the door mechanism to prevent tampering or unauthorized entry into the vehicle. Many truck seals are numbered and can be printed with your company's name. These seals are not designed to replace a proper heavy-duty lock, but they are an excellent deterrent and a good way to detect theft and tampering once the seals have been put in place. This deterrent can also work as a bona fide safety measure when it comes to the security of your truck operators. A driver who spots a tampered seal can back off to phone the authorities rather than risk a look into the truck, which may be occupied by thieves.
